"She is called 'Scarface Dragon Girl' because she has two terrible scars on her face from being eaten by the Abyss Dust."
After secretly glancing at Yun Che's expression, Meng Jianxi quickly searched for relevant information in her memory and said slowly, "Long Xi is a very special existence in the dragon clan. She was not born in the dragon clan, but was found outside the mountains by the people of the dragon clan. It is said that when she was found, she was just a little girl of five or six years old."
Yun Che: “…”
"Because she has the aura of the Ancestral Dragon, she was brought back to the Dragon Clan, but no one claimed her, so she was identified as the bloodline of an Ancestral Dragon that was left behind after the union of an Ancestral Dragon and the human race."
“What is her situation in the Dragon Clan?” Yun Che suddenly asked. This was the question that concerned him the most.
Meng Jianxi thought about it and gave a clear enough answer: "Although he is the blood of the ancestral dragon who returned from abroad and is half human and half dragon, Long Xi has a very high status in the dragon clan and is somewhat special."
"Especially the Dragon Lord who rules the Dragon Clan, who is extremely caring towards Long Xi and gave her her own territory. He has personally issued strict orders more than once, prohibiting any offense or bullying against her because she is of foreign blood. No one is allowed to enter her territory without permission, not even to disturb her."
“Why?” Yun Che asked almost subconsciously.
"The reason is very simple, because Long Xi's talent in the profound way is extremely high." Meng Jianxi used the word "extremely" without hesitation: "The reproduction of the dragon race is already quite difficult, and the speed of cultivation is far slower than that of the human race. There is only one direct descendant of the Zulong lineage in this generation, named Long Wangchu. It can be said that the dragon race has poured the most top-level resources into him, but he only barely broke through to the Divine Lord realm at the age of sixty-years."
"However, Long Wangchu's cultivation has suddenly made great progress in the past sixty years. Now, at the age of eighty years, he has already reached the late stage of the Divine Lord Realm. People outside are speculating that some kind of innate hidden talent is gradually awakening."
Meng Jianxi continued, "As for the side branches, there are only a few who are outstanding. And Long Xi, her talent in the profound way shocked the entire dragon clan back then."
"It is said that when Long Xi was young, he was extremely withdrawn and unwilling to contact anyone. He was also unwilling to accept any resources from the dragon clan. However, he achieved Divine Sovereign at the age of eleven and Divine Lord at the age of fifteen through his own practice. He even alarmed the Dragon Lord who was in seclusion and he came out early."
Without relying on any resources, he became a God Lord at the age of fifteen. This undoubtedly made Long Wangchu, who had the most top resources of the dragon clan but took six generations to become a God Lord, look unbearable.
Meng Jianxi sighed, "He achieved the Divine Lord Realm at the age of fifteen without relying on resources from higher planes. This is definitely a big deal, not to mention the Dragon Clan, even in the Divine Kingdom... At least the two of us brothers are far behind."
"That's why the Scarface Dragon Girl is so famous among all the major divine kingdoms."
“I heard that the scar on her face appeared when she was fifteen years old?” Yun Che spoke slowly, his voice very calm.
Meng Jianxi frowned slightly, tried to recall the time, and then nodded: "Yes, it was probably that time. According to the information about the dragon clan received by Xuanji Pavilion, Long Xi had an amazing appearance when he first grew up, which attracted countless people in the dragon clan to covet him. Long Wangchu even asked the Dragon Lord many times to give him Long Xi..."
Bang!
The tea table next to Yun Che suddenly cracked.
I dreamed that the sound of the creek suddenly stopped.
Yun Che raised his hand and said with a faint smile: “I am about to break through, and a little bit of my profound energy is leaking out. Please continue.”
Meng Jianxi lowered her eyes slightly and continued as before, "Long Xi's talent is so high that it is enough to shock the world, and the Dragon Lord naturally hopes that she can be together with Long Wangchu... As you said, it was that year that she had two terrifying scars on her face, which scared Long Wangchu away from her."
"Brother Yuan, what you just said, could it be that you suspect that these two scars were left by Long Xi in order to avoid this matter, and he did not hesitate to destroy himself?"
“…” Yun Che did not deny it.
Meng Jianxi pondered for a while, still frowning, and said, "But, women naturally attach great importance to appearance, and when they are young, they will regard it more than their lives. Moreover... Long Wangchu is the only direct heir of the Zulong lineage, and he will become the Dragon Lord in the future. If Long Xi attaches himself to him, he can become the Dragon Queen in the future and stand shoulder to shoulder with the Dragon Lord at the highest peak of the dragon clan."
"If she was willing to destroy her own appearance in order not to become the Dragon Queen, then..."
This doesn't make sense no matter what.
The corner of Yun Che’s mouth twitched slightly, and it seemed to be a twisted sneer: “No matter how young and lonely a phoenix is, it will never be able to fall in love with a country chicken covered in gorgeous feathers.”
"Uh..." Meng Jianxi's throat seemed to be choked by something, and then she immediately changed her words and said, "If that's true, then this scarred dragon girl is really strong-willed and extremely cruel."
“You just said that Long Xi has always been treated well by the Dragon Clan. In other words, after that, the Dragon Lord did not get angry with her or continue to force her?” Yun Che’s voice was as calm as before… but it was just a voice.
"Based on the information from the Dragon Clan over the years, it is indeed true." Meng Jianxi had no doubts about this: "The Dragon Lord has lived for a very long time, has a calm temperament, and a broad mind. If Long Xi really destroyed her own face, the Dragon Lord might even feel guilty about it. In addition, according to some more reliable news, the Dragon Lord wanted to take Long Xi as his adopted daughter many times in public, but was rejected every time."
"The fact that he is so eager and eager to take Long Xi as his daughter at least proves that he loves Long Xi very much and will naturally treat her well. Another more reliable piece of information is that Long Xi's territory is almost a forbidden area that belongs to her alone. Under the Dragon Lord's strict order, no one dares to enter without permission. This is obviously also a kind of preference."
"Also, there has never been any news of her being bullied or excluded by the Dragon Clan. On the contrary, although she is in the Dragon Clan, she is extremely indifferent to all the Dragon Clan members, causing most of the Dragon Clan to stay away from her and fear her."
"There is one more thing... Just four days ago, there was a strange sound in the Zulong Mountains. It seemed that someone had completed a breakthrough to the God-Destroying Realm, but the momentum was much greater than that of an ordinary breakthrough to the God-Destroying Realm."
"If that is truly the vision of a demigod's breakthrough, then the one who could cause this vision to this point must be someone with extremely high talent in the profound way... I personally think it is most likely Long Xi."
That’s all I have to say about Meng Jianxi.
As the only beast race that survived in this world, the dragon race has always been busy with its own affairs and rarely communicated with the outside world. The six great divine kingdoms naturally paid little attention to the affairs of the dragon race. It was extremely difficult for Meng Jianxi to understand and remember Long Xi's affairs to this point, which showed his efforts and ambitions over the years.
It was a pity that his ambition, which had been growing for a hundred years, was crushed by Yun Che.
Being a smart enough man, he just answered and rarely asked questions.
Yun Che did not continue to ask, but suddenly asked a completely unrelated question: "Sir Xishen, in recent years, have there been any women with the surname 'Xia' appearing anywhere?"
"Xia?" Meng Jianxi thought for a moment and then shook his head: "I have never heard of anyone with this surname."
“Yes.” Yun Che nodded, then stood up: “After today, I need to keep abreast of the movements of the various gods and goddesses… all movements! If there is any relevant news, please inform me at any time. If I am in the process of cultivation, I will inform Lu Laisheng and he will convey it to me as soon as possible.”
In Meng Jianxi's opinion, this undoubtedly meant that Yun Che had officially begun to position himself as the Son of the God of Dream Weaving.
He immediately responded, "I understand. Don't worry, brother Yuan. I will convey all the information, whether it is accurate or not. I believe that brother Yuan will make an accurate judgment."
"Very good, go ahead."
When Meng Jianxi left, Yun Che’s forced calm expression finally began to crack.
He closed his eyes and let out a long breath.
Although the two terrible scars on Long Xi's face had always been like two poisonous thorns deeply piercing his heart, but at least... she was safe enough in the dragon clan and was treated well enough.
This undoubtedly relieved the burden and worry in his heart.
…
"Now, I am strong enough. I can protect myself and have found a way to 'wake up' my mother... I no longer need help, and I don't crave it, but you appeared 'at the right time'..."
"I don't hate you. When I rescue my mother in the future, if she wants to be with you, I won't stop her. But before that, please don't interfere with my mother and I! Because what you bring... may only be disaster!"
"Please."
…
Long Xi's words at that time were plain but piercing, and they have echoed in his soul countless times.
Long Xi... my daughter, take good care of yourself. You are right. I am now in a lot of trouble. If I force myself to get close to you, I will only disturb your peace and bring you unknown disasters...
I won't keep you waiting too long...even if you have never waited for me or expected me.
But, you are the daughter of Shen Xi and I after all. I will heal all the scars in your heart and face... At least, give me a chance to make amends, so that one day I can hear you willing to call me father.
Dragon Clan... For all your kindness towards Long Xi, I will repay you a thousand fold once all matters are settled.
Even if the abyss turns upside down, I will definitely keep the dragon clan safe!
————
Time passed slowly as Yuan Chen wandered around. Unknowingly, Yun Che had been in the Kingdom of Dreamweaver for a year.
This year was the most turbulent year in the Abyss in recent years.
Especially in every living place close to the sea of fog, the atmosphere has become extremely strange.
Because in the sea of fog, there appeared... Oh no, it should be said that there has always been a ruling emperor.
Emperor of Fog!
At first, when the name "Emperor of Fog" spread, everyone believed that it was a trick created by villains, and that anyone who dared to use the name "Emperor" was simply digging his own grave.
But after that, every appearance of the Fog King would cause increasingly huge waves outside the sea of fog.
Because the legendary Mist Emperor can drive away the Abyss Dust, control the Abyss Beasts, and even eliminate the Abyss Corrosion that is impossible to eliminate in the blink of an eye.
The legend became more and more outrageous, more and more exaggerated, and more and more ridiculous... But gradually, more and more people could no longer laugh, because with the repeated appearances of the Fog Emperor, the legend of the Fog Emperor was no longer a legend, but became something that more and more people saw with their own eyes.
That was undoubtedly a shock that completely and thoroughly overturned one's cognition.
Once the Abyss erosion enters the heart, death is inevitable. This is basic common sense known to everyone in the Abyss.
Moreover, among those who died in the abyss, 90% died from abyss erosion.
The beastmen also disappeared one after another due to the abyss erosion.
But this cognition was completely torn apart with the appearance of the Mist Emperor.
As one mortal after another was annihilated by the words of the Mist Emperor, ridicule turned into suspicion, and suspicion turned into hope...
Starting from ten months ago, every day a large number of people would come to the edge of the Mist Emperor, dragging their bodies that were corroded by the abyss, or bringing their friends, relatives, and loved ones who were already on the verge of death, seeking the Mist Emperor to appear and grant them the legendary gift.
Until two months ago, when the Mist Emperor showed up once, surrounded by gray mist, and in just a few breaths, he freed thousands of people from the abyss of corruption...
